Again: why does anything have to be "detected fully automatically"?We've had a mechanism for controlling symlinks for an eternity: alternatives.
I cannot see any valid technical argument against having /etc/resolv.conf managed by alternatives. If systemd-resolved wishes to have the highest alternatives priority, and thus ends up being the resolver by default, that's fine.
Does anyone have an argument /against/ having /etc/resolv.conf managed via alternatives? What can't you do with alternatives that you can with the current ham-fisted approach, where someone has to go out of their way to figure out how to switch to network manager-provided resolv.conf?
